Please describe "Flipped" Slim. Pete, any chance a restricted exhaust might be an issue?
Also Slim, have you checked that brittle little tube to your MAP? Mine about crumbled when I touched it. It is supper crucial, and fragile.
Drivers side, brown with white stripe.
Slim had said after it warms up. Put a vacuum gauge on it maybe, rule that out. ..

Literally flipped lol. Exhaust sux (sounds like a pissed off bumble bee) but not messed up. The tube is fine I just replaced it.

Hey, you broke one of those rules..let me think...OH! I remember, "Keep the rubber side down" That's the one.
There is a brittle little tube. It comes out of a rubber plug, low on the engine side of the throttle body. It runs back to the firewall, then up to your MAP sensor sort of high up there near center on the firewall. CRUCIAL!! The MAP will tell the ECU to dump fuel with less/no vacuum. Any crack or blockage and it will be pig-rich. (black smoke, fouled black plugs). You can pull the line off the MAP and feel for vacuum with your finger. If it runs!
